Just a quick update to report that my story, Cuckoo Spit, has been accepted for publication by Black Static. I’ve been a longtime admirer of the magazine, going back to when it was originally called The Third Alternative, so to land a slot among its auspicious pages seems something of a landmark to me. The tale is about a woman who returns to her mother’s Cumbrian cottage in an effort to repair their failed relationship. It is tentatively scheduled to appear in issue 27, although I’ll post more information as I receive it.
